Scholarship Opportunity: Sodexo Foundation
The Sodexo Foundation is a non-profit organization as defined by 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Service. The company, Sodexo, pays all administrative costs of the Foundation to ensure that the money raised goes directly to those in need. 0% administrative costs. Our Mission is to be a driving and creative force that contributes to a hunger-free nation. The Sodexo Foundation supports innovative programs that fight hunger in the United States, with a particular focus on helping children and their families. Every day, Sodexo serves hundreds of thousands of nutritious meals. Yet in the communities we serve, more than 36.2 million people are at risk of hunger. Of those at risk of hunger, 12.4 million are children (16.9% of all children). As North America's leading food and facilities management firm, we have made fighting hunger the central focus of our community service efforts. For many years, our company has supported and, more recently, initiated, programs that provide hunger relief to those in need. This dedication begins with our senior leadership, extends out to our local managers and staff, and is embraced by many of our clients and customers. For Sodexo, fighting hunger is a deeply held commitment that will continue for as long as the need persists. We call our program STOP Hunger, for Sodexo Teams Our People, because it is truly a company-wide team effort. Each year the Sodexo Foundation provides $5,000 scholarships to students in K - graduate school who are fighting hunger in America. If you know of young people anywhere in the US who may be doing great things to fight hunger, encourage them to apply between now and February 26. In addition to the scholarships, the Sodexo Foundation will provide a matching $5,000 grant to the winners' hunger-related charity of choice. You can learn more and apply to this great program atwww.SodexoFoundation.org.
